Amendment NO.1 SR,doc COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 03/02/2009 Agenda Item Number: Pq ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY STAFF REPORT EDA W, INC. - AMENDMENT NO.1 TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR ADDITIONAL FUNDING BACKGROUND: In June 2007, the Urban Land Institute ("ULI") analyzed and prepared a study for the Downtown Central Business District of San Bernardino. The purpose of the ULI's involvement was to study and provide recommendations and proposals for the City of San Bernardino ("City") to consider, relative to land use, transportation, lifestyle, urban design, commerce and government that would bring physical and economic vitality back to Downtown San Bernardino ("Downtown"). ULI presented their findings and recommendations on June 29, 2007. In August 2007, these findings and recommendations in final form were received by the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino ("Council") and the Community Development Commission of the City of San Bernardino ("Commission"). In June 2008, the Commission formally endorsed ULI's study for the Downtown Central Business District. The Commission also recommended that the ULI study be presented to EDA W, Inc. ("EDA W"), for further analysis and refinement for the preparation of a planning document for Downtown San Bernardino. The Commission further authorized the Interim Executive Director of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino ("Agency") to execute an Agreement for Professional Services ("Agreement") with EDA W, for the preparation of a Downtown Core Vision/Action Plan (Vision/Action Plan), for an amount not to exceed $263,500. In July 2008, a multidisciplinary team of experts from EDA W started the work of preparing a Vision/Action Plan for the City. The preparation of the Vision/Action Plan was anticipated to involve nine months of work efforts with a number of meetings and tasks to be performed as outlined in the Agreement. Since July 2008, EDA W has met and conferred with Agency Staff, gathered and researched relevant data, project site survey, held stakeholder interviews with City and County officials and staff, San Bernardino Chamber of Commerce, and other agencies, as well as other individuals of interest. Late in 2008, EDA W, with the assistance of Agency Staff, held a series of Charrettes and an Open House to update and inform the public on the issues, opportunities, concepts and ideas being generated to revitalize Downtown San Bernardino. CURRENT ISSUE: During the course of developing the Vision/Action Plan, interest has been positive and promlsmg. Agency Staff, along with EDA W has been asked to prepare additional visual material, make presentations and facilitate meetings with other agencies, potential developers and other interested parties. These additional efforts were not anticipated, thus, not addressed in the current Agreement. To maintain the momentum of the Vision/Action Plan, EDAW is assisting in the preparation of a conceptual vision plan for a Theater Block, which includes Maya Cinemas and the immediate surroundings, within the Downtown Core. This could serve as a catalyst project for Downtown. In addition, as the Agency moves forward toward completing the Vision/Action Plan, EDA W must provide P:\Agendas\Comm Dev CommissionlCDC 2009\03_02_09 EDA W, Inc. - Amendment No. I SR.doc COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 03/02/2009 Agenda Item Number: {21-- '7 Economic Development Agency Staff Report EDAW, Inc. -Amendment No. I Page 2 support and materials for additional client and stakeholder meetings to move the Vision/Action Plan forward to gain the required consensus and approvals. Hence, it is proposed that the Agency amend the current Agreement with EDA W for an amount of not to exceed $65,000. The amended amount will be added to the dollar amount of the original Agreement with EDAW. ENVIRONMENTAL IMP ACT: This Amendment to the Agreement for professional services does not meet the definition of a "project" under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). FISCAL IMP ACT: The amended cost of the Agreement with EDA W is $65,000, which is included in the proposed fiscal year 2008-2009 Agency budget.
